Athena

My story

Athena is a gently, quiet kitty that enjoys attention from all: staff, volunteers, and visitors. She likes to be gently stroked and lightly brushed. She does not mind being picked up and held either. She is simply a beautiful, all-round nice kitty waiting for someone to offer her a secure home and love her forever!   Athena was caught in a car’s fan belt and incurred some serious tissue damage in her rear end. While it took time for the skin to heal and hair to grow back, now, you would never know she came to us in very serious condition.   Birth date March 2018   Athena is FIV positive.Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) is primarily transmitted through bite wounds. This means that it can be possible to house a cat with FIV with other cats without the virus, as long as they get along and it's a stable household. At ARC, all of our cats are tested for FIV and those with the virus live in a special house dedicated just to them. Cats with FIV can have a normal lifespan and enjoy a healthy life.November 2, 2024, 4:32 pm
